CD3 and just started soy, anyone else?

[PoasCrazy]

I have a question , I have the soy isoflavones in the purple bottle Made by Natrol. The label says take 5 a day for menopause relief, but dosent list how many mg they are. How many should I take daily?

 

[confused27]

Hi poas I'm not sure if these are the ones.

If so I think they are 50mg according to the link, and it says it's only soy in them so, to match up to clomid you would double the soy. IE. 50 mg of clomid would be equal to 100 mg of soy iso. But I would have a look on google and make sure you know how much is in them first. Ladies take all different doses, I ovulate on my own so took 120 mg cd 3-7. They aren't recommended if you have a normal cycle but I wanted to try for better egg quality so I took them. If you type in soy isoflavones TTC in google you will find loads of info about how they work etc. I would say to research it first as it doesn't work for everyone and also can delay your cycle etc too. Hope this has helped a little good luck honey xx

Hi ladies, can I join your thread?

I started soy for the first time this month and utterly confused. I usually surge on CD-19 but this time around I caught the surge on CD-14...was ecstatic bc i thought I would O early....but when I took the test out of the digital reader it was smeared and the test line was faint. I retested 5 min later and it was negative (maybe urine was diluted). The next day on CD-15 got another smiley face and again the test line was faint.

Now I'm on CD-20 and just tested just for the heck of it ( I usually get the surge on CD-19/20) and got a + OPK. Yesterday on Cd-19 was a negative...My right ovary is very crampy and I feel like I'm about to O anytime now...

So is the first + OPK a false positive?

Those are it !!!! thank you ! So if I want to take 150 mg of clomid.... I need to take 300 mg of soy isoflavones?

 

[PoasCrazy]

I think im gonna try 200 mg of soy this cycle, can't hurt right? I just can't decide what CD to start it.

Welcome ladies!

tnguyen916 - You might have had two surges this month. A rise in your basal body temperature would indicate that you might have ovulated.

PoasCrazy - You shouldn't take more than 200 mg of soy a day so taking 200 mg would be a great idea. I took soy days 3 - 7.

I've finished all my soy doses night before last. Now I'm just waiting for my chart to show when I Oed. We BD enough so I don't think I will spend the money on OPKs this month and I'm out of the IC tests now. I'll save my money for test time because I'm a POAS junkie! LOL! So far I've had some sleepless nights and a couple headaches and I think it's from the soy. I did take it at bedtime but I think it may have carried over on me.

 

[confused27]

hey all how are we all doing now? xx

 

[SuperwomanTTC]

I got a positive opk yesterday on cd 17. Last cycle I had two surges, but they weren't until cd 22 and cd 31. Soy made a difference. How are you doing Confused?

 

[confused27]

That's great superwoman, I'm doing ok I'm 4dpo my tickers out by a day lol can't wait for testing xx

 

[ChattyCatty]

Been out of the loop for a while due to a move. Hope this doesn't mess with my O date! I'm CD14 with no sign of O yet, although CM was starting to get more creamy 2 days ago. I think I'm gonna be sure to BD at least every other day, keep temping, and hope this move doesn't stress me out too much to ruin O with soy!

 

[MRItech14]

I'm in the 2ww now (5dpo) but curious to see how this cycle ends up since I o on cd 8. I would like to be hopeful but it just seems way too early of a O for a pregnancy to happen. But hey, at least I can o on soy!!

 

[SuperwomanTTC]

Just checking in... how is everyone?

 

[ChattyCatty]

Just checking in... how is everyone?

Well, I'm CD16 and FF shows that I O'ed on CD13, but I'm not so sure about that. Been taking my temp a little later than usual since I'm on holiday and don't have to be up so early. And I never noticed any EWCM. Guess we'll see! How is everyone else doing?

 

[confused27]

Hi everyone I'm 8 dpo now and am testing, way too early I know but I'm an addict lol

 

[SuperwomanTTC]

Confused I totally understand! I'm only 4 dpo and I want to test just for the heck of it. I keep blaming it on being a science geek lol.

 

[confused27]

Lol I know it's terrible the urge you get. My tests bfn again today x

 

[messymommy]

I'm still around. I'm waiting to ovulate I guess. My chart is all over the place with the up and downs. It's never been like this so it has to be the soy. I hope it's a good thing, LOL.
